I believe that the Lord can give me His unadulterated message in the English language through the power of the Holy Spirit; who also was at work when they translated the kjv.

So, there is no need to go back to the original languages to get the truth.

As a matter of fact, if you study the languages and become an educated Greek or Hebrew scholar, you are more likely to become like the educated scribes and Pharisees who rejected Jesus while the common people heard Him gladly.

The KJV is a translation and therefore not Infallible

Wow are you arrogant! Even Tyndale, Hus, Luther and all the rest had to learn the original language in order to translate it into the language they worked in.

Most older translations will do no harm, but in todays age of Laodecia, with the plethora of translations and the subtle changes and not so subtle changes many make from the originals, if you don't bother to study well, you will become very vulnerable in thinking you don't need to know.

That is what I have said! Repentance means to change ones mind! Meta noioa! When one changes their mind about who Jesus is and what He did their sins are removed! Repentance is salvation, as soon as ones mind is changed (repentance) they are saved! The forgiveness of sins occurs at the same moment! Maybe nanoseconds apart but I wouldn't shave by the difference. Because after all the saved whp repented are the elect from the foundation of the World!

Ah you are a Calvinist. Says much

Sanctification is a wonderful thing, but it is not the basis of my hope. On Christ the solid rock I stand, all other ground is sinking sand.

OK that explains your misunderstanding of the prepositions in the Greek

So what is your expertise then? Are you a linguist and what credentials do you present?

I can pull from linguistical studies online showing why into or unto is the preferred useage than "for" the least of which I already showed in Strings.

They are called The Five Points of Calvinism. Supposed to be from John Calvin. However he rejected the L in TULIP


Well I can't speak to what Calvin agrees or disagrees with. but limited atonement in its full definition is biblical. I think they may have used limited atonement for th e"L" to make tulip, though I am not sure.

If there is a valid translation in your own language, there is no need to go back to the original languages.

It provides for a cult-like mentality in which those who understand the nuances of Greek and Hebrew are considered to be experts on what the Bible really teaches.

OK. So what problem do you have with the ESV in Luke 24.47?

that unto is a more grammatically correct translation. "eis" is a preposition that connotes a motion. While "for" can be correct it is misleading as many show when they say things like one can lose their salvation and that repentance means turning from sin (which it doesn't).

Also several ancinet writings in teh worls of the ante-nicene fathers on Luke 24:47 use the conjunction "kai" which shows repentance and remission are two seperate events . Which with "eis" as the most used word in manuscripts shows that the first action moves one to the second action.
